Benefit
So, that Barney vs. Wil Wheaton fight on Thursday was great fun, and was recorded on lots of media by lots of attendees.
If you've got a QuickTime player, don't miss the Barney videos shot by Paul Weinstein. The NBC News coverage is great fun. It even briefly shows Kieran and Mae Ling. You can also see Wil grabbing Barney by the tail and swinging him around. (I'm still waiting for a movie of Wil leaping over Barney's light saber.)
(Note, re the NBC story, that EFF was not involved with the Rio lawsuit (RIAA vs. Diamond Multimedia); that was defended by Andrew Bridges of WSGR. Also, EFF does not expect to be sued in connection with our ridicule of Barney this past Thursday.)
The DNA Lounge also has its own pictures, which are very nice, and I've seen pictures published on-line at a couple of other sites.
I skinned my knee in a pre-benefit light-saber duel with John Gilmore. One thing I did not expect to do when I moved out to California was skin my knee fighting John Gilmore. But he's rather dextrous, and I could only get away by doing a full-body roll beneath a chain. Evildoers, beware!
